What is wrong with a new version b4 d senate sat on it? The budget is made by d executive 4 senate to deliberate on. D executive amended it b4 senate start deliberation. So what is ur issue with that.

Bigprozzie:


I hope you are not an IPOB Youth

The reason why I asked is because the full details of the amended budget is on the Ministry of Finance website and the details made FP earlier this evening

While we commend Buhari for listening to the criticism from Nigerians, I will advise that he ensures that there is internal scrutiny of future policy documents before they are made public.

We need professionalism at the presidency
Foolishness runs in ur vein...

hmmmmm
pls post with facts, 2014 n 2015 budgets. did us 1billion for aso feeding?

pls show us link where u saw d new budget that is missing.

or did PMB stole it

tuale4u:


It is not illegal. D document is d president budget. The president is d author. As long as NASS has not worked on it, he can ammend it. Nothing wrong in amending it. Maybe he erroneously did not follow protocol, but he did not break any law.

kenny987:


Don't defend the indefensible please! The President is the author and should have done his homework at home. There are some things that should ordinarily admit no margin for error or incompetence and the National Budget is one of them. We shouldn't have even been confronted with such carelessness and corruption as evinced by the first one submitted!

To further rubbish the integrity of the document as well as the offices of the Presidency and the NASS by this drama of the document being declared missing and all manner of stories afterwards smacks of ineptitude and confusion! That also clearly shows that despite the so called Change mantra, all the conduit pipes for corruption and theft are still actively in use!

It is absolutely wrong to have withdrawn or nicked the Budget without a formal statement or press release to that effect taking cognisance of public outcry against the blatant theft presented in gargantuan proportions for passage into law. Once it had been formally presented, it ought as well to have been formally withdrawn with the people duly informed! Don't be so simple minded to think that since it was withdrawn before the NASS deliberated then it's alright. It is the height of illegality! Do u not see the confusion already being caused where u have different versions of the budget submitted and d Senate is forced to choose one? Should that be happening?

Say the truth...if this happened under GEJ u would have been one of the loudest critics with tags like clueless and how he drank too much and didn't know what he was doing! Now is not the time for kid glove approach because u are an ardent political supporter of GMB. Firm criticism doesn't stop u from being in love. It only shows u are aware and alert, not a zombie completely sold out!

Daintelectual:

The right thing to do is write and formally withdraw it and not present a new budget!

Nobody is disputing d fact it wasnt properly done. But House of Rep never complained. It was also presented to house of rep. Senate alone does not make up NASS.

My post is more on the fact that the president made adjusted base o d masses request.
Only d presidency knew why they choose to do it d way they did.

There is no illegality in d Act. No law was broken. Yes, proper protocol wasnt followed. But no law was broken.

The President can not choose to be corrupt and we keep silent. For a new budget to be smuggled in without the knowledge of Nigerians and the Senators portrays high level of corruption and disrespect to Nigeria. Presidency wants to officially present a version of Budget while it operates with another version. No one will complain if he head formally openly admitted the errors in the budget and then written to NASS for withdrawal, that was what we wanted when we condemned initial Budget of Yams.

And also the fact that REP didn't complain doesn't make it right, even if Senates had accepted it, it still doesn't make it right. Corruption isn't justified becuase it is practised by the elites.

And Again, as for the revised Budget, it's still an outrageous and budget of Yams. Go and study it before you come here and ask us to sing Sai Baba.

ckmayoca:
Lolzzz. People like OP are thieves that steals and when they wanna swear , he will sneak to return what he stole and join people cursing the thief.
The presidency have to power to retrieve the budget, adjust and return but not smuggling it as it na answer booklet of olodo.

tuale4u:


But less outrageous than the first. I choose to focus on that. I have seen both.

drss:
buari should be commended for stealing n doctoring national budget Do u know d implication of presenting two versions of d budget If buari has good intentions why didn't he follow d proper channel to retrieve d budget for correction U only hear dis in a banana republic.

As i said, d whole issue is because of d president and saraki are not in good terms.

calyx:


No you can'tc choose to focus on misinformation.

Where the president reduced the BMW budget from N3.4 bn in 1st version to N340mn in 2nd, he added an outrageous N3.9bn for maintenance of the villa in 2016 in the 2nd version...for a villa that was just tastefully refurbished. In addition, he added a N795mill website update for solid minerals ministry in 2nd version amongst others.

How is the 2nd one better

Johnrake69:

Thanks for the response

My guy are you sure its not lie Mohammed that is behind that moniker, tuale4u?

The guy is so stupid, foolish, ignorant and dumb.

Senate president is to blame. He could have handled it better.

ehissi:


You sound just like the fellow that defended clinton at a time during the monica lewinsky scandal!!

Mr president did not lie; he never had. S E XX with her!! For crying out loud he didn't penetrate her, it was just Fell-atio, simple cunnilingus that's all!! He should be commended for being open, matured and honest about it...........

tuale4u:


I an not gullible at all. My post is draw attention to d nobility and motive of the new version rather focussing on technacalities that has no value on d live of Nigeria masses.

kenny987:


So it should be glossed over? If they'd made an official statement of apology thereby taking responsibility for their actions then they can get whatever accolades u wish to heap on them. Why should such rubbish even happen? It tells the world that the current government under GMB is one that is unserious and inept, given to criminal activities and hoping it goes unseen.

tuale4u:


I am not against that. My only concern is the motive for the adjustment. That is what i am more concern about. Every other thing is grammar. Nothing more than that.
